1. When materials are subject to extreme heat, such as from a flame, they often become ionized, a process in which the positive and negative charges in the particles become at least partially separated. The following video shows a candle flame between two electrodes, initially set up so that they essentially form a parallel-plate capacitor. Pause the video at 0:18, and predict what will happen to the flame as the capacitor charges up, and why. Ve What's In A Candle Flame? Watch later Share 2. Continue the video. Is the resulting shape fairly symmetric, or does it seem to favor one electrode over the other? If so, which electrode? Give a physical reason why this might happen. (Note: The video switches perspective several times, so keep track of the background to see which plate is positive and which is negative, and which side of the screen each is on.) 3. At about 0:27. the hosts gives an approximate value for the voltage between the two plates. While they're still in the parallel-plate configuration, make an estimate of the separation between them. Use the information we've learned about the relationship between potential difference and electric fields to do a rough calculation of the electric field strength between plates. Compare this value to the E-field strength (given later in the video) necessary to break down air molecules (make sure the same units are used for both)
